Domaine Murayama Motivo 2022

Crafted from Chardonnay, Motivo 2022 is a compelling white wine that leans into the savory and textural side of the grape. On the nose, it opens with aromas of clementine orange (kiat-kiat), dried orange peel, and a hint of earth. The palate brings out layered notes of dried apricot with a subtle mineral grip and a touch of umami.

Medium-bodied with bright acidity and low tannins, this dry white shows structure and restraint, offering a serious yet expressive character. Best served at 10–13 °C, Motivo is a thoughtful, food-friendly wine that rewards slow appreciation.
